This week started off with a bang that has gotten me behind on blogging, on cleaning, on getting things done and on being happy. There is a lot of sadness in this beautiful world of ours, and when you hear, see and are dished it, it can get overwhelming and disheartening. However, each of us, YOU included, is special and full of greatness. And that's what helps me get through things... remembering that innately all of us are good and we are all important. No matter what someone belittles you with or what experiences you go through, YOU can rise above them and show what you're made of.
There were hard things said to my Mister James and about our family that made the mama bear come out and my heart grow heavy. Sometimes I want to calmly play the time old classic, Bambi. And put repeat on the scene where Thumpers mother has him say the advice he's been taught, "If you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all." How many lives would be blessed if we took the advice of that smart rabbit.
Remember to use your head before words are said or written that can hurt another person. The morning after our hard night I got a pick-me-up bacon maple bar and orange juice for my Mister. I can't wait to do things like that for my children!! It brings me a lot of joy and helps me forget my sorrows when I serve someone else. I sure love this little family of mine a bushel and a peck, they are a barrel of fun and my heart is there's forever!
